The connect app has a filter feature
Ironic since this community isn’t for “how to lemmy” questions.
!lemmy_support@lemmy.ml
I’m not sure if there is a way on the web interfaces, but many of the mobile apps being developed incorporate filter lists for keywords. I remember I used Mlem’s filters during the beans trend since I wasn’t interested in those posts.
Whoops didn’t mean to delete my post - was editing and accidentally deleted.
Thank you! I have Mlem and indeed there are filters in the settings.
Omg of course! I have Mlem set up. And indeed it does have filters in the settings.
I guess I’ve been using the web app and Wefwef PWA more than Mlem but this is probably reason enough for me to use it over others - until they hopefully build it in too!
Thank you.
Edit: Looks like it’s a hard filter only – fine by me.
If you’re an admin, you can set slur words as a regex in the settings. For example, I’ve set certain fruit computers as slur words, so I just see redacted in place of these words. And you can’t post messages with these words from my instance.
